Were you around circa 1973 or so? We got a lot of snow, down to sea level here in the SF Bay Area. I won't forget it, because my car had broken down, was in the shop and I was hitchhiking to get to and from college. Had to trudge along in the snow for a couple miles, and didn't get picked up. It also snowed once in early 1960s, perhaps 1961 or so. We had a couple brief dustings since, last one in early 2000s. This weather thing cycles between cold and hot, wet and dry, mild and stormy, and man has nothing to do with it.
I was around, but to tell you that this happened in 1972 and that happened in 1973, well, the neurons that recorded that info got “smoked” shall we say, a long time ago!
